I work in most media (pastel. oil, watercolour, pencil, pencil crayons, and pen and ink). My subject matter is as diversified as is my media. Fortunately (or unfortunately), I enjoy painting practically everything. I do not paint to make a statement, only for the love of it - just trying to capture what I feel is beautiful!

Having lived on the prairies and been friends with local Natives, and having grown up with "cowboy and Indian movies", I really enjoy trying to capture them in my paintings.

In addition to painting western art, I also enjoy painting old barns and farmhouses.

I knew I found my calling in life when the first time that I picked up a piece of stone and began to carve the surface of it. There was something far beyond what I could explain. Something told me that the “Creator” had given me my gift for it felt right and it felt powerful. I will cherish, and be eternally grateful for this gift that was given so freely. That feeling has never left me, when I begin to carve, it’s like the “Creator” is continuing to guide me. My openness – my focus – is almost like a trance I listen to what the stone is saying to me, not in words, but with images that shows me what to carve and where. In this manner, I create unique and original works of art. I get a feeling of overwhelming happiness and excitement when a piece is finished. Then, I can see that I am bringing each piece of stone to life… as though it will soon breathe on its own.

"Through my art I strive to present the frailty, beauty and strength that I have observed in a world resplendent with culture. The strength and pride of my subjects are the true inspiration of my art."

In the summer of 1999, The Calgary Stampede set out to find a sculptor to create a monument that would add the finishing touches to the new 30 million dollar expansion of their Trade Show & Convention facility known as the Roundup Center.

Linda Stewart was selected from among 40 artists and commissioned to create a sculpture that would portray the ranching tradition of Alberta. The Life-size bronze sculpture depicts a typical ranching scene. The casting was completed June 5, 2000 by Bronzart Casting of Calgary.

The Sculpture is aptly named "ROUNDUP" and it now stands at the front entryway to the new Roundup Center on the grounds of the Calgary Stampede.

Doug was born in Kamsack, Saskatchewan, in 1948. After graduating from the University of Saskatchewan, he joined the Canadian Army as an Artillery Officer. Throughout his Army career, he had the opportunity to travel extensively in Europe, the USA and across Canada.
Doug is a self-taught artist who has been painting watercolors as an amateur since 1978, and professionally since 2002. He is also an accomplished computer graphic artist, with extensive experience in desktop publishing and fine art printing.
Doug's prairie upbringing has been the major influence in his art, which concentrates on rural landscapes, old buildings and derelict machinery. He also paints dog portraits in watercolor. In his paintings he strives to capture a sense of his own feelings, experiences and appreciation for the beauty, color and texture of the landscape and the artifacts of prairie life.

This young artist's work of the vivid and whimsical west will take you back to the days of yesteryear of wild west heroes, villains, and the country side they roamed! Darryl has recreated in his own unique style a part of American history he feels is an essential part of our culture.

His fiery colors and sometimes humorous approaches to his subject matter remind us of the vintage days of Hollywood when Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, Rex Allen and Tom Mix rode the open plains in search of truth, justice and the occasional buffalo! Darryl feels that the silver screen cowboy gave people a "real" hero to look up to, and were a fascination to the world.
